Snowman Christmas Tree

I live with a family who loves to have a giant fresh Christmas tree filled with large blinking lights, lots of ornaments (old and new) and metal tinsel. I love the tree, but always want a themed tree. This year, in addition to our traditional tree, I decorated a "Snowman" themed tree. Ashely assembled the white tree that stands 6 feet tall. It is a narrow tree, but tall. The white is quite striking. Last year, I found it at the after Christmas sales ands immediately thought I could turn it into a skinny snowman.

I added 2 strings of solid white LED lights and then started decorating.

I made a bunch of snowman faces -- wooden disks that I painted with snowman faces. I made a bunch of tiny faces and larger ones.

I added some black Christmas balls -- the red/black and white combination is quite striking - even if it isn't "traditional" Christmas.
